The Book of Common Prayer

The Book of Common Prayer is a traditional Christian liturgical resource used mainly by the Anglican Church. It contains structured prayers, services, and rites for worship, including daily prayers, Sundays, and special occasions like weddings and baptisms. Its purpose is to promote shared worship, spiritual growth, and community identity by providing consistent language and rituals rooted in Christian faith and tradition. The book also reflects theological beliefs and helps guide clergy and laity in expressing their devotion and understanding of Scripture through familiar, orderly practices.
